Sizing a DC motor to accurately meet a set of requirements can be a thankless task. Having to choose between brush-type or brushless motors can complicate the selection. Even experienced designers may ...

The development of moving-coil or coreless motors dates back to the middle 1930s. But it wasn't until the early 1960s that they were produced economically enough to gain wide acceptance. Major ...

November 17, 2013. ServoTek Products Inc. has announced the successful application of its TachSyn Series brushless DC tachometer/commutator within industrial motor speed monitoring applications. The ...

The trend in the automotive industry is to replace mechanically actuated systems with systems based on electric motor technology. The traditional brushed dc motor is not suitable for many of these ...

The first type of motor built is still in widespread use In the late 1800s, several inventors built the first working motors, which used direct current (DC) power. After the invention of the induction ...

Permanent magnet dc motors need a chunky inductor in series with them if they are fed from an SCR (thyristor) based mains power controller. It is (probably!) possible to safely interface an Arduino to ...
